DOWNTOWN GUANGZHOU ARCHITECTURE






I was pretty impressed today as I went for my first walk with a camera in downtown Guangzhou. Guangzhou is the ninth largest city in the world, though most people in the US have never heard of it. The architecture here is world class. The third picture is of the opera house designed by Zaha Hadid, a really fascinating building. The 4th picture is the newly finished library, designed by a Japanese firm. The last photo is the Canton Tower, the second tallest tv tower in the world. It is probably the most iconic building here in Guangzhou though it was only completed a few years ago.
